Answer:

\displaystyle \frac{dh}{dt}=-\frac{4}{\pi}\approx-1.2732\text{ centimeters per minute}

The water level is dropping by approximately 1.27 centimeters per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached diagram.

The height of the conical container is 6 cm, and its radius is 1 cm.

The container is leaking water at a rate of 1 cubic centimeter per minute.

And we want to find the rate at which the water level <em>h</em> is dropping when the water height is 3 cm.

Since we are relating the water leaked to the height of the water level, we will consider the volume formula for a cone, given by:

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

Now, we can establish the relationship between the radius <em>r</em> and the height <em>h</em>. At any given point, we will have two similar triangles as shown below. Therefore, we can write:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{6}=\frac{r}{h}

Solving for <em>r</em> yields:

\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{6}h

So, we will substitute this into our volume formula. This yields:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned} V&=\frac{1}{3}\pi \Big(\frac{1}{6}h\Big)^2h\\ &=\frac{1}{108}\pi h^3\end{aligned}

Now, we will differentiate both sides with respect to time <em>t</em>. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{d}{dt}[V]=\frac{d}{dt}\Big[\frac{1}{108}\pi h^3\Big]

The left is simply dV/dt. We can move the coefficient from the right:

\displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{108}\pi\frac{d}{dt}\big[h^3\big]

Implicitly differentiate:

\displaystyle\begin{aligned} \frac{dV}{dt}&=\frac{1}{108}\pi(3h^2\frac{dh}{dt})\\ &=\frac{1}{36}\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}\end{aligned}

Since the water is leaking at a rate of 1 cubic centimeter per minute, dV/dt=-1.

We want to find the rate at which the water level h is dropping when the height of the water is 3 cm.. So, we want to find dh/dt when h=3.

So, by substitution, we acquire:

\displaystyle -1=\frac{1}{36}\pi(3)^2\frac{dh}{dt}

Therefore:

\displaystyle -1=\frac{1}{4}\pi\frac{dh}{dt}

Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{dh}{dt}=-\frac{4}{\pi}\approx-1.2732\text{ centimeters per minute}

The water level is dropping at a rate of approximately 1.27 centimeters per minute.

Tell whether the angles are vertical or adjacent and solve for x. Solve 11 and 12 for 20 points and brainest.
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

11) x = 45

12) x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

11)

3x + x = 180

4x = 180

x = 45

12)

4x = 5x - 30

4x - 5x = -30

-x = -30

x = 30

a hotel with 75 rooms has 45 for doubles and 30 singles. singles can be booked in any room, but reservations for two or more peo
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

y = 75 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given variables, and then we can see that

when x = 75 then y = 0

when x = 30 then y = 45

Finding the difference, we have

slope(m) = (45 - 0) / (30 - 75)

slope(m) = 45 / -45

slope(m) = -1

Next, we use the calculated m, to find b, using the formula

y = mx + b

0 = -1 * 75 + b

0 = -75 + b

b = 75

And finally, to get the needed equation, we say that

so y = mX+c

So that

y = -1 * x + 75

y = -x + 75

or y = 75 - x

For what values (cases) of the variables the expression does not exist: <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4y%2B
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{3}{4y+2}

The denominator of the expression cannot be zero as this would make it undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that y cannot be, that is

4y + 2 = 0 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

4y = - 2 ( divide both sides by 4 )

y = \frac{-2}{4} = - \frac{1}{2} ← excluded value
